What you see as a single company operating a single worldwide network, is actually a web of companies with interlocking directorships and share structures. In each country they will probably have 3 or 4 corporate entities." Ok, I hadn't thought of that. I was thinking of one company in a non-US country with some assets in the US (but most not) and being held to US regulations network-wide. How would you stop the traffic that was not following US regulations from hitting the US? A:HNLL7710# configure router 1500 bgp as-path-ignore us-based-as-paths ? Not there... ;-) "Spend some time hanging out with finance and legal people in a big company. You may find it almost as fascinating as designing networks." As much as I hate to admit it, I believe I'd enjoy geeking-out on that for a while... scott
